[It's snowing.

That's right, it's snowing. The ground is covered in a nice thick layer of snow. More importantly, there's a nice and neat series of tables with scarves, mittens, ear muffs, and sleds leaning against it. (A few of the tables even serve hot chocolate that inexplicably hasn't gone cold, for those who need to warm up.)

It's the perfect weather for snow activities since the snow isn't too heavy... You know, except for the occasional Cryogonal that falls from the sky. There seem to be quite a few of those.

But don't let that stop you from some of the classics- snow angels, sledding, snowball fights... Tis the season and all.]

[Snow and steep slopes can only mean one thing: extreme sled races against yours truly! See, in addition to being smart and good-looking, Green is also pretty talented at outdoor sports, and making losers feel bad in the middle of snowfall happens to be one of his favorite past times. Race against him if you dare!]

[As a flying-type, Yveltal is not particularly fond of snow and ice, but puts up with it anyway because sometimes it's difficult to avoid.

So here stands one of Kalos's mighty legendaries, hunched over on all fours the only way it can stand up, with several smaller Pokémon taking shelter from the snow beneath its broad wings and tail.]

[Ethan's definitely sure that there isn't snow until the top of Mt. Silver. The scenery is definitely different enough as well.

But hey, there's free hot chocolate, and the hot chocolate is delicious. So that's something. He, his two Pichu (one has a strange notched ear; the other has odd coloration,) and some new bird Pokémon he doesn't recognize are all huddling together and having tastes of his hot chocolate in peace.

(He's prime snowball bait.)]

Wooow!!

[At ten years old and a resident of P̴̨͉̺͞à͕ͅl͚͍̦͖͔͟͡l̸̬̩͇͎͕̩ę̰̟̻̖̦̟͟ṯ͚̤̝̪͓̕͞ ̮̘͠Ţ̯̦̱͔ò̠͕̱̜̜͍̮͉͡ẁ̥͔̥̙͈͜͜ͅn͉͖̖̮͜, Blue's very rarely seen snow. Or so much of it in one place -- something tells her she's not as unfamiliar with it as she thinks......

But thinking's for grumps, and Blue's excitedly flopping around in the snow. She's mitten-less, scarf-less, and ear muff-less -- she was way too excited to notice any of that, and she can't possibly be cold when she's having so, so much fun!

Her Bulbasaur's enjoying it a lot less though, somewhat predictably.]

[Oh, snow................

Well, Ethan can deal with it. Scarf? Check. Mittens? Check? Ear muffs? They're Pichu-themed! Ferafera's relaxing in it; apparently being a giant coldblooded lizard doesn't ruin his good fun! Being a cold-blooded jerk doesn't ruin Ethan's fun either.

He's making snowmen. Some look suspiciously like certain people (Gym Leaders, Champions (forgotten or met), Lyra...) and he's putting the finishing touches on one that looks like his buddy Silver.

That is, he's giving him a goofy grin and a face that just screams NEEERRRD.]

[Oh, yeah, sure. Snow's pretty cool. It snowed every so often in Johto (at least when it got really cold, and usually at the end of winter), so she's not too surprised about it.

The hot chocolate, though. Armed with Torchic-themed winter wear (despite her choice in starters!), she's greedily downing the stuff. It's just so good! Even her mom's not as good as this!

Good job, Island, you've won yourself a fan.]

[If there's one thing Lyra loves, it's snow.

The cold isn't too bad either. It doesn't really bother her and her fiery, protagonist spirit. But the snow! Is so! Good!

So is the hot chocolate!

But Lyra is not partaking in it, no, she is having too much fun trying to catch the falling Cryogonal with her Cleffa mittens. Sprouty, who is decked out in so many scarves, is keeping himself and Fishy quite comfortable warm with hot chocolate. Sip sip. So good.]

Almost... Got it! [Dive!!!

And miss!

But there seems to be many of them grouping around her. Like a chain. They're catching prey.]

[rosanance]

[A girl her age, the ripe fourteen-fifteen gap, should be enjoying herself.

But no. Rosa has quite the problem of being sick. Riding on her larger than usual Arcanine really helps, as does shooting down Cryogonal with her Lucario's Aura Sphere, but... She's still in quite the mood. And bundled up.

And snifflely.]

Why do I have to be sick now? This is no way for... [A princess to be treated, her mind murmurs finishes mockingly, and she shakes her head. Old habits die hard.] This is no way to spend a snow day. And I don't even have any cu-- cu--!!

[Ah-choo!!

Sniff.

Cute company. At least the Lucario's sympathetic.]

[Somewhere along the edge of all of these festivities is a table. It used to have a bunch of stupid looking hats on it, but they've all been swept off onto the snowy ground. The culprit responsible for the mess is sitting at the table, with a thermos of steaming hot chocolate at his elbow and a long grey scarf wrapped around his neck and bony shoulders.

He's irritably tapping a pen on the table as he looks down at a notebook, studying what he's written there. Anyone who gets close enough might catch a glimpse of his notes; they appear to be a detailed record of some of the locations on the Island. At his feet, a scrappy looking Totodile is fending off any Cryogonal who drift too closely to the table. Despite the massive size and weight difference, none quite dare to float in range of her snapping jaws.]
